Main information
What to expect
Come and start your skiing adventure at a world renowned place for its winter sports, Zermatt. At an altitude of up to 3,800 m, our private ski lessons for adults in Zermatt welcome first-timers, as well as ski-returnees and experts to work on your movements in the snow in an exclusive course setting. You can let off steam on the 360 kilometres of slopes of Switzerland's third-biggest ski resort.
Our well-trained and qualified ski instructors individually tailor a programme. They focus on your specific requirements and chose skill-appropriate slopes. The instructor will assess your ski techniques based on your movements and work with you on the aspects that need improvement. With a 1:1 learning approach, you can work on your skills at your own pace. Beginners will start with skiing in plough and move forward to parallel skiing as soon as they feel safe. As an expert, you have plenty of options for how to shape the lessons. Maybe you want to improve your carving skills. This approach is the most efficient way to succeed!

Our instructor was lovely, but I believe there was some miscommunication. We are experienced skiers and the instructor did not take us on appropriately challenging runs and could not keep up with us, so we went ahead and waited for her.

First of all, it was a very smooth and flawless process to place an order and find/select instructors. Very customer oriented and friendly administrator/manager who stayed on top of all our bookings and in touch with us prior, during and post trainings regarding time, meeting point, updates requested by us, language preferences, etc. Secondly, very professional, positive and friendly instructor, Lucy, who has been assigned to us. We enjoyed a lot all the time on the slopes, managed to polish and improve our skills thanx to Lucy and her professional eye to catch mistakes and ability to very well explain what needs to be addressed. We can highly recommend Lucy for different levels since we were a blended team of beginning, intermediate and advanced skiers.
